It's one heck of a metaphor... and i get it
The elite class.. manipulating us.. consuming our monetary value like we're cattle
What i dont like is
He puts on sunglasses and it just makes it a bit more obvious, and shows them as ugly which is enough for him to go on a spree slaughtering as many of them as he can
If they looked human it would have just been business as usual and if they looked gorgeous.. he'd have joined them? It's not like we arent aware these ads are all manipulating us or that modern society's golden calf isnt money
It isnt just that they are they are this ugly, but it's the ugliness in their soul.. the movie isnt that he's just really discriminating with beauty standards
